Hello, my name is Gillian Timpson. Please tell Dr Phillips that daughter Nicola is ill. She's got little red spots, which itch terribly. And she's got a high temperature. If she drinks anything, she's sick. I think she needs a home visit. Our address is 56, Hill Road.
Practice this conversation between two doctors.
A: Have you been busy this evening?
B: Pretty busy. My first patient was Jim Beaton. He had twisted his knee. He slipped on a banana skin in the street. I think he just needs to rest his knee. He's very fit.
A: My first patient was Mrs Neale. She keeps being sick, and it's just because she eats too much.
B: A lot of patients don't really need treatment. They feel ill because they do silly things. We can give them pills to treat some illnesses, but they need to keep fit and eat sensibly.
Repeat these things, which come from: a hospital, a supermarket, a restaurant, a factory, a railway station.
The machine in the corner needs cleaning.
Could you put clean sheets on Mrs Reed's bed, please?
Get the six fifteen train from platform three.
We need some more tinned peaches, and baked beans.
I'd like coffee with cream, and then the bill, please.
